You need to take it in and have it scanned for fault codes, that is the first step in repair of this problem.

you might have a starter gone bad. When you try and crank does the engine spin over or is there just like one solid loud clicking noise? or is the engine spinning over when you try and crank but it just want start up and run?

My 2002 malibu ls wont start it will turn over but wont fire my check engine light is on but that in no other lights on no window no power locks nothen how do i fix it

If it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs. If spark everywhere, check fuel pressure and fuel injector pulse. Go from there.
We can also check circuits for power windows.

97 geo prism. Ran fine yesterday. Today went to

PRIZM.

cranks fast, but will not start.?

did you try jump cables start? off a running donor car, AAA style>?

and had to disconn? what does that mean and what was results? if any.

ahhh, to fix the stuck on blinkers? i get it.

not to fix starting...



blinkers on , key off>?

that?

which engine?

http://www.fixkick.com/PRIZM.html



the engine type dictates what wiring car has. (partly)



fix the stuck blinkers first. this implies, either ignition switch failure

or gross wiring errors, hacks gone wrong.

the key swtich does turn off blinker power feed.

I have a 99 s10 andd it wont start it has a new fule pump filter and presser and oil presser rag and new catconverter and spark plugs and nw coil new relay too any ideas it cranks but wont start and

I think I have the solution for ya. In a lot of GM's the security fails. and when it does it will not allow car to start. I know a module that can bypass it and for a very reasonable price and u can install yourself! check it out and see if this is it

No spark crank sensor works COIL WORKS BUT WONT START THE ENGIAN LIGHT FLASHES 3 to 4 times please tell me whats wrong and why it does not start

You have the old school check engine light, which you turn your key without cranking fully on off three times it will give two digit codes separated by pause ending in five five meaning end of codes.

HELP! My 2000 plymouth neon wont crank and no mechanic i bring it to can figure it out!!

If the headlights and dashboard lights are working but the vehicle still does not start, the ignition switch is most likely the problem. or a bad wire from switch. If your battery checks out, but the starter is still silent, it may be a faulty ignition switch. Turn the key to the on position (not all the way to start). If the red warning lights on your dash don't light up (and your battery connections are clean), the ignition switch is bad. If they do light up, turn the key to the start position. The dash warning lights should turn off at this key position (most cars). If you're not sure, turn on the headlights. When you try to start the car, the lights should either dim (a lot) or turn off completely. If they do, your ignition switch should be ok. If not, the switch will need replacement. check the wires to starter and see if you have power when car is switched on, do this first! good-day! if it cranks but does not start. check to see if spark and fuel, and check all fuses also.
